The Brahminism row in Bihar Assembly created chaos during a debate on the UGC Equity Act. The Brahminism row in Bihar Assembly began when CPI(ML) MLA Sandeep Saurabh alleged that some leaders opposed the bill due to a “Brahminical mindset.”
His remark triggered strong protests from BJP members. Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha objected sharply and called the comment divisive. He said such language harms social unity and disrespects communities.
Members from Bharatiya Janata Party and Rashtriya Janata Dal clashed in the House. The situation turned noisy as lawmakers demanded action.
Speaker Prem Kumar stepped in to control the House. He ordered that controversial words be removed from the official records.
The debate highlights rising political tensions in the Bihar Legislative Assembly over caste-related issues.
